The Female of the Species – 2017

Margot Mason is one of the pioneers of the 1970’s Women’s Liberation movement. More than thirty years on from her groundbreaking work, she has shocked and inspired in equal measure with many of her celebrated books. But now she has writer’s block and so the arrival of an unexpected guest seems a welcome relief from the solitude of her country house. However, things get rather out of hand and the situation quickly escalates.

Join Codsall Dramatic Society for this deliciously wicked comedy from celebrated playwright Joanna Murray-Smith as we delve deeper into the world of feminism and explore the concept of gender roles in modern times. We will dance between satire and farce while answering deep questions and hopefully making you laugh along the way.
